A young woman rides a scooter over a bridge in Ottawa. Leading e-scooter operator, Neuron Mobility, will be launching the 2023 riding season and returning its vehicles to Ottawa’s streets. City of Ottawa staff are recommending that council move forward with another season of the city's electric scooter program, with a number of changes that could see more scooters hit the streets.
Staff are also recommending an extension to the operating hours of the e-scooters to put them more in line the city's transit schedule. The 2023 season of the pilot program ran from May 15 to Nov. 15 where approximately 50,000 users took about 179,000 trips around the city. There were about 1,000 trips per day, the city says.
Alberta RCMP says its members are continuing to maintain public safety at a carbon tax protest west of Calgary and say members of a similar demonstration were involved in a multi-vehicle crash.Although a private browsing mode known as 'Incognito' in Google's widely used Chrome browser has been available for nearly a decade, a legal settlement involving the way it works has casting new attention on this commonly available setting.
